What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Ca(2+) and cGMP have opposite roles in many physiological processes likely due to a complex negative feedback regulation between them. Examples of opposite functions induced by Ca(2+) and cGMP are smooth muscle contraction and relaxation, respectively. A main Ca(2+) storage involved in contraction is sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR); nevertheless, the role of cGMP in the regulation of SR-Ca(2+) has not been completely understood. To evaluate this role, intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) was determinated by a ratiometric method in isolated myocytes from bovine trachea incubated with Fura-2/AM. The release of Ca(2+) from SR induced by caffeine was transient, whereas caffeine withdrawal was followed by a [Ca(2+)]i undershoot. Caffeine-induced Ca(2+) transient peak and [Ca(2+)]i undershoot after caffeine were reproducible in the same cell. Dibutyryl cGMP (db-cGMP) blocked the [Ca(2+)]i undershoot and reduced the subsequent caffeine peak (SR-Ca(2+) loading). Both, the opening of SR channels with ryanodine (10 μM) and the blockade of SR-Ca(2+) ATPase with cyclopiazonic acid inhibited the [Ca(2+)]i undershoot as well as the SR-Ca(2+) loading. The addition of db-cGMP to ryanodine (10 μM) incubated cells partially restored the SR-Ca(2+) loading. Cyclic GMP enhanced [Ca(2+)]i undershoot induced by the blockade of ryanodine channels with 50 μM ryanodine. In conclusion, the reduction of SR-Ca(2+) content in airway smooth muscle induced by cGMP can be explained by the combination of SR-Ca(2+) loading and the simultaneous release of SR-Ca(2+). The reduction of SR-Ca(2+) content induced by cGMP might be a putative mechanism limiting releasable Ca(2+) in response to a particular stimulus.
